There are nine matches on the Fastlane 2019 card, and the WWE Universe should be in for an entertaining night that will drive stories and create new ones heading into WrestleMania 35.
Fastlane will have three Tag Team title defenses, including the first from the inaugural WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Sasha Banks and Bayley. The card will also see the return of the Shield in what may be their last time in the ring together - if Dean Ambrose does leave the company in April.
Daniel Bryan continues to be the "Planet's Champion" as he defends the WWE Championship against the returning Kevin Owens. With "Kofi 'Mania" spreading quickly, and The New Day proclaiming they will be ringside for this match, the WWE Universe should expect the seeds being laid for WrestleMania.
